Name the wastes which are generated in your house daily. What measures would you take for their disposal?

Answers (1)

1. Kitchen waste like food, vegetable peel, and fruits all that is biodegradable can be thrown directly in a compost pit and turned into useful humus.

2. Paper waste like newspapers, magazines and textbooks, and plastic waste like bottles, and Tupperware containers should be reused or should be sent for recycling.

3. Biohazard waste like cotton, band-aids, used tampons, needles, and injections should be disposed of properly in the designated waste area as they may carry disease-carrying pathogens.  

4. Vegetable/fruit peels/rind should be placed near trees/plants so that on decomposition they enrich the soil with nutrients.
